Updating A Profile Not Currently In Use; Buttons - Verizon MiFi 4510L User Manual

➌
Click Apply.
If you change the Network Name (SSID), security method, or network key you will need to
•
re-connect with the Wi-Fi manager on your computer.
If you change other settings, your computer will re-connect automatically after
•
MiFi 4510L restarts.
Tip!
Some Wi-Fi clients become confused if the security is changed and the network name is not. If you
change security settings and do not get asked for the new network key when you try to reconnect,
delete the existing old network name from your Preferred Networks list on your wireless device.
Then you can reconnect.
IMPORTANT
Changing the Network Name (SSID), security method, or network key (Wi-Fi
passkey) ends all Wi-Fi connections to MiFi 4510L, including the current connection to MiFi
Settings. You must re-connect your computer to MiFi 4510L using the new profile's Wi-Fi settings.
Be sure to write down the new network key (Wi-Fi passkey) before you finish changing the
profile.
